Alone in the world, teen-aged Hattie is driven to prove up on her uncle's homesteading claim. For years, sixteen-year-old Hattie's been shuttled between relatives. Tired of being Hattie Here-and-There, she courageously leaves Iowa to prove up on her late uncle's homestead claim near Vida, Montana. With a stubborn stick-to-itiveness, Hattie faces frost, drought and blizzards. Despite many hardships, Hattie forges ahead, sharing her adventures with her friends--especially Charlie, fighting in France--through letters and articles for her hometown paper. Her backbreaking quest for a home is lightened by her neighbors, the Muellers. But she feels threatened by pressure to be a "Loyal" American, forbidding friendships with folks of German descent. Despite everything, Hattie's determined to stay until a tragedy causes her to discover the true meaning of home. 000310540 5218_ $$a012 & up. 000310540 5260_ $$aAccelerated Reader/Renaissance Learning$$bMG$$c4.4$$d10 000310540 586__ $$aNewbery Honor, 2007. 000310540 650_1 $$aSelf-reliance$$vFiction. 000310540 650_1 $$aFrontier and pioneer life$$vFiction. 000310540 650_1 $$aOrphans$$vFiction. 000310540 650_1 $$aWorld War, 1914-1918$$zUnited States$$vFiction. 000310540 650_0 $$aSelf-reliance$$vJuvenile fiction. 000310540 650_0 $$aFrontier and pioneer life$$vJuvenile fiction. 000310540 650_0 $$aOrphans$$vJuvenile fiction. 000310540 650_0 $$aWorld War, 1914-1918$$zUnited States$$vJuvenile fiction. 000310540 651_1 $$aMontana$$xHistory$$y20th century$$vFiction. 000310540 651_0 $$aMontana$$xHistory$$y20th century$$vJuvenile fiction. 000310540 85200 $$bya$$hPZ7.L32394$$iHat$$i2006 000310540 85642 $$zOnline access to contributor biographical information$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0623/2005035039-b.html 000310540 85642 $$zOnline access to publisher description$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0623/2005035039-d.html 000310540 85641 $$zOnline access to sample text$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0665/2005035039-s.html 000310540 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:310540$$pGLOBAL_SET 000310540 980__ $$aBIB 000310540 980__ $$aBOOK
